Glen Roethel, a Posi (positive) Music Artist, performs his song “Rainbow” live, bringing thoughts of “acceptance-not-tolerance” to the first-ever Woodstock Peace Festival, Bearsville Theater, Woodstock, New York, on September 27, 2015.
“Rainbow” is a favorite song of mine from my first solo CD, From Beginning To End. It’s important to me because it speaks to humanity’s basic need for survival and the truth that diversity is how things survive in nature. Genetic changes brought about by “blending” gives us (and plants, and insects and every other living thing) a natural defense against disease. Imagine changing a password every day – how hard would it be for someone to crack that code?!
We all need each other, so today I offer you this bootleg video of my performance at the 2015 Woodstock Peace Festival. Tolerance is not the answer – try acceptance! Thanks for watching!
